Anatomic dissection of the tibialis posterior muscle and its correlation to medial tibial stress syndrome.

摘要: The authors attempt to redefine the anatomic origin of tibialis posterior muscle, and correlate it with location medial tibial stress syndrome that occurs in lower third tibia. Contrary what is commonly described, show on all ten dissected specimens, does include a portion mean distance from posterior's malleolus was only 7.77 cm. In addition, further explain leg pain, investigated crossing point flexor digitorum longus; for this occur same specimens 8.16 proximal malleolus. These findings provide insight reasons behind biomechanical factors responsible syndrome. This also important consider when performing surgery deep compartment
